Radha Syama Raya temple

The temple of Syama-Raya, the worshipable Deities of Gauridasa Pandit, is just off the road leading to the Yamuna from Gopinatha Bazaar, on the same side of the road as the samadhi of Srinivasa Acarya. Gauridasa Pandit’s samadhi is within the temple compound.

Before taking sannyasa, Lord Caitanya, along with Lord Nityananda, visited Gauridasa Pandit in Ambika Kalna. Gauridasa begged the Lord to stay longer. Mahaprabhu made life-like neem wood Deities of Gaura-Nitai. Gauridasa Pandit worshiped these Deities, even when he was very old. These Deities are still being worshiped in Ambika Kalna, West Bengal. Gauridasa Pandit left his body in Dhira Samira Kunja in Vrindavana.
